Marcelo Vanzin commented on SPARK-27681:
----------------------------------------
bq. 2043 in method parameters, 1488 in method return types
Just a small fraction of those are public APIs, I'll bet. So probably not that
huge of a problem.
> Use scala.collection.Seq explicitly instead of scala.Seq alias

> Key: SPARK-27681
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27681
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: ML, MLlib, Spark Core, SQL, Structured Streaming
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Sean Owen
> Assignee: Sean Owen
> Priority: Major
>
> {{scala.Seq}} is widely used in the code, and is an alias for
> {{scala.collection.Seq}} in Scala 2.12. It will become an alias for
> {{scala.collection.immutable.Seq}} in Scala 2.13. In many cases, this will be
> fine, as Spark users using Scala 2.13 will also have this changed alias. In
> some cases it may be undesirable, as it will cause some code to compile in
> 2.12 but not in 2.13. In some cases, making the type {{scala.collection.Seq}}
> explicit so that it doesn't vary can help avoid this, so that Spark apps
> might cross-compile for 2.12 and 2.13 with the same source.
